What is an Extreme Declination (EXDEK)?

In most astrology branches and forms, most astrologers give little to no attention to the second dimensions in the Geocentric and Heliocentric charts. The second dimension in the Geocentric chart is the Geocentric Declinations; for Heliocentric, it is the Latitudes. The Declinations and Latitudes are the celestial body’s vertical coordinate. The Declinations of a body and or midpoint are the distance, in degrees, north or south of the Celestial Equator. The Celestial Equator is the imaginary circle made by casting the Earth’s equator onto the background of space. The Sun’s declination will change from 23.5° north to 23.5° south. The Earth’s tilted orbit causes the change of vertical position for the Sun. 

The Heliocentric Latitudes are the celestial latitude of a celestial body as if seen from the center of the Sun. A coordinate that gives the position of an object north or south of the Ecliptic as it would be seen from the Sun’s center. It is measured in degrees from 0° at the Ecliptic to 90° at the ecliptic poles. When it comes to Earth, its latitude will always be 0.0°; it will only change from 0.0° north or south, depending on the time of year. The Ecliptic is a celestial coordinate system commonly used for describing the alleged positions, orbits, and pole directions of the Solar System. Since most planets (except Mercury) and many small bodies have orbits with only slight tilts to the Ecliptic, it is suitable for the fundamental plane. 

A quick lesson of what a midpoint is, in case you are unfamiliar with it. A Midpoint is a point equidistant in degrees between two celestial bodies. There are two for the longitude alignments in the geocentric and heliocentric charts. However, there is only one midpoint when it comes to the geocentric declinations and the heliocentric latitudes. It is not common to find an astrologer who uses the midpoints in the geocentric declinations and heliocentric latitudes. 

So what does it mean when a body or midpoint is in extreme declination? An extreme declination happens when a celestial body or midpoint that is not the Sun goes further than the 23.5° boundaries of the Sun. For example, if the planet Mercury is 25.10° South in the geocentric declinations, it is in an extreme declination. 

What is so special when a body goes further than the boundaries laid out by the Sun? This alignment is unique, based on studies by the Magi Society; they have found that when celestial bodies do this, their strength is amplified and is highly favorable, usually. The remarkable thing is that this specific event rarely happens. It occurs for a single body or midpoint every other couple of years. This discovery is also consistent with a principle of Magi Astrology; the principle states that the rarest astrological occurrences are the most powerful. 

So what does this mean if a person is born or business incorporated under such an alignment? It signifies that the person born under that alignment will have a superior ability in areas related to the celestial body and or midpoint in extreme declination. For example, suppose a person was born with the asteroid Pallas in the extreme declination. In that case, it could be interpreted as the person will have superior abilities in programming, being a professional gamer, filmmaker, musician, anything that requires planning and logic, Etc. The same could be said for a company if it was incorporated when Pallas was in the extreme declination. This alignment will signify that the company can have a superior ability to build computer software since Pallas rules anything digital. Suppose the business is in the tech, gaming, and filming industry. In that case, it will have outstanding success compared to its competitors, and so forth. 

Summary 
The extreme declination will increase the celestial body and midpoint powers and abilities. Any celestial body or midpoint located more than 23.5° north or south is considered an extreme declination.
